On Facebook, I came across an entry by BLM Wild Horse & Burro Program. Check it out. It's very informative. They take a wild Mustang and transform him to a working Mustang, and together with its rider, seek out illegal immigrants along our borders. The video has some beautiful shots of the wild herd. The only thing I didn't like about it was the helicopter roundup. I've read recently that there are measures being taken to stop that type of roundup because the horses freak out (I mean, wouldn't you?), and hurt themselves. On this video, that did not happen, which is great, but I would think there should be another way that benefits both man AND horse! But the whole program is worthwhile, I think.. I mean, I'd rather have a horse being ridden, fed and taken care of than starving in the wild. Any reactions???
